What's up dog?

Before he was in my life, my home felt almost like a prison. I was always scared of going into town in case of having a seizure. Once I had got him from the amazing organization, K9 Search Medical Detection, my life did change for the better and Im grateful. Now I know when they will happen and know that Ill be safe. He has put me into the recovery position after he alerted and I went into a seizure, which was because I had stopped breathing. He is able to sense when Im upset and will wake me up if Im having a nightmare. Most importantly hes able to go get help if I do have a seizure and wont come out of it.
